Neural Networks-Based In-Process Surface Roughness Adaptive Control System in Turning Operations

Using a back-propagation neural networks algorithm and accelero-meter sensor technique, this research developed an in-process surface roughness adaptive control (IPSRAC) system in turning operations. This system not only can predict surface roughness in real time, but can also provide an adaptive feed rate change in finishing turning to ensure the surface roughness can meet requirements.
